SAN BERNARDINO: Shooting suspect surrenders to police

A 24-year-old San Bernardino man who police believed broke into a mobile home and shot his ex-girlfriend and the man she was staying with has turned himself in, police said Monday, Jan. 7.

Arthur Raymond Uribe was being sought for investigation of attempted murder. He reported to police Monday morning, according to San Bernardino police Sgt. Gary Robertson.

Both victims survived the 11:03 p.m. gunfire Friday, Jan. 4, in a mobile home park at 775 E. Base Line. Their names have not been released.

The assailant, whom police identified as Uribe, fled soon after the shooting, which wounded the woman in the right leg below the knee.

âRecently, they broke up. They had been together about three years,â Robertson said Sunday, Jan. 6, when he described the crime. âThey have two small boys together.â

Details of the male victimâs wounds were not released, though the injuries were not believed to be life-threatening.

Soon after the shooting, police surrounded Uribeâs mobile home along the 700 block of East Ninth Street.

Officers detained one man they saw leave.

Officers summoned a SWAT team, thinking Uribe was still inside.

âThey ended up shooting tear gas into the mobile home and making entry,â Robertson said. âNo one was inside.â

Uribe has been convicted of criminal charges at least twice in San Bernardino County, according to police and court records.

In December 2007, he was sentenced to two years in prison for felony vandalism, online records show. In March 2011, he was placed on two yearsâ probation for resisting arrest and was ordered to serve 30 days in jail.
